Squid, do you know of any shops in the US that stock standard grey Avon Searider rubstrake?

Emailed Kiwiboyd (east coast), Henshaws (uk), and Paul Tilley. Paul is the only one that has gotten back to me so far, and while I'm happy to know that the product I'm looking for is out there, purchasing/shipping from the UK will be expensive (>$500)

I don't buddy. I thought about trying to find it in black but found a different product in Alaska. I'll PM that to you if you like.

I did some digging into images on Google and now know the rub strake I'm trying to find was used on the Achillies sport in 1987. Now I just need to find a dealer that may have 12' of old stock. If you guys have any ideas let me know.

Thanks, Squid

I just realized I posted this in the ''Rib'' instead of SIB section.....I'm heading for the whiskey soon, I move it in the AM mates.

Cheers, Squid

Rubstrake is universal...it could go on a rib or sub. You're probably ok.

Thans , that makes sense.

Still looking for rub strake

I'll bump this once, as I have not been able to order this stuff from my local dealers. All they can get is the teardrop edge. If any one has some new or used I would to buy it. Thanks in advance.

Cheers, Squid
